These days with popularity of content marketing you see companies put out self-promotion propaganda just about everywhere. What could be more boring than a social media site filled with companies blowing their own horns and proclaiming excellence? Maybe that is why when we see a company that flaunts its failings we are taken aback. To discover that it’s a marketing and advertising company; well that is just about unheard of. Yet that is exactly what’s happened on White Shark Media’s own blog.

They had the transparency to not only be accountable and own what had become the sources of their client’s frustration, but to follow through and publish just what they were changing to fix their problems. They have published a post on the White Shark Media blog entitled, Typical Complaints from White Shark Media Clients and How We Make Sure They Never Happen Again.

The answers to their problem areas are not just standard, pat answers. Instead, they put the pedal to the metal to discover what they could change internally in their own systems processes to eliminate the issues and better serve clients going forward.

Disqus has it that White Shark Media is a specialty advertising firm that transforms client’s Adwords accounts to maximize click through rates. They are specialists in PPC as evidenced by the fact that they don’t offer organic SEO typical services. They DO consult with their clients on selecting an assertive and professional SEO provider, but they choose to stay in the competitive arena of PPC. Clearly they have learned do the one thing you do better than anyone else, then stop trying to be everything to everyone. You can’t consider yourself an expert if you’re trying to do everything under the sun.

Before clients sign on and start services, most have already had Adwords accounts that are bringing them traffic, and are performing at least moderately successful. Most agencies insist that clients abandon their current campaigns and go with their services exclusively.

Not White Shark Media; they allow their clients to maintain current campaigns that are bringing in traffic while they simultaneously begin new optimized campaigns and analyze the performance. Once the new campaigns take hold and perform well they leave all decisions up to the client to make the final decision after discussing the pros and cons of each.

In addition, they assign only 3-5 SEM Strategists per every experienced Supervisors, so there is constantly oversight from two experts on each client’s campaigns. Further, they install conversion tracking, Google Analytics and call tracking to let you know exactly how your campaigns are performing.

Couple this with their monthly results reporting that they send out in advance of monthly meetings via GoToMeetings shared screen feature, so your SEM Specialist can keep you informed on the sources of all traffic and instruct clients as to what the report of their metrics mean.

FreedomPop is a well-known name in the mobile communications industry. Different with other major mobile phone operators, it operates on a virtual network. In the very recent past, the company made an announcement that it had plans to introduce discounted mobile phones as well as free services. The company announced that customers signing up for service between the time it made the announcement and November 7, 2015, would be allowed to pick up a Motorola E smartphone for only $40 which amounts to a $190 discount. Another option for the customers was a Samsung Galaxy S4 for just $100 which amounts to a $350 discount on the normal price.

Both devices were refurbished and even though they were not the latest, they included support for LTE services. The best thing with the deal was the fact that it gave users a free month of unlimited voice calling, one gigabyte worth of cellular data as well as free text messages. Soon after finishing the free data, customers were allowed to transition to the company’s standard offer of free 500MB data, 500 minutes and 500 text messages.

The company made a debut in 2012 and by the time it was making the announcement, it expected to hit one million customers within a few months time. The company had also managed to get funding from Intel Capital that it planned to expand its smartphone portfolio with. Before that funding, it had received another investment worth not less than $10 million from a major operator in Asia. With that funding, it planned to use its technology together with the operator’s network capabilities to offer simple and affordable plans to millions of users.

FreedomPop can be best described as a wireless internet mobile phone services provider. The company is well known to produce text, voice and wireless data services using two major networks platforms. The company has in the recent past also spread its wings to the US market and by the look of things, it is already doing well. The company is known for its phenomenal free mobile services that include voice, data and text. The company also sells broadband devices, tablets and mobile phones that customers use for its service.

The company has up to date managed to raise a lot of capital when compared to start-ups that started around the same time it was starting. All that can be contributed by the fact that it offers quality to customers cheaply hence attracting investors.
